Synthesis, characterization and identification of inhibitory activity on the main protease of COVID-19 by molecular docking strategy of (4-oxo-piperidinium ethylene acetal) trioxonitrate

In this investigation a single crystal of (4-oxo-piperidinium ethylene acetal) trioxonitrate (4-OPEAN) was synthesized by modifying the mechanism of gradual evaporation at ambient temperature. The operational groupings are found in the complex material in the elaborate substance, according to the infrared spectrum. Single crystal X-ray diffraction suggests, (4-OPEAN) with the chemical formula (C(7)H(12)NO(2))NO(3) belongs to the orthorhombic space group Pnma and is centrosymmetric in three dimensions with the aforementioned network configurations, a = 11.7185(8) Å, b = 7.2729(6) Å, c = 11.0163(8) Å, Z = 4, V = 938.89(12) Å(3), R = 0.0725 and wR = 0.1762. Many N—H…O and C—H…O hydrogen bridges, both bifurcated and non-bifurcated, link the 4-oxo-piperidinium ethylene acetal cations to the trigonal (NO(3)(−)) anions. Molecular geometry and optimal parameters of (4-OPEAN) have been determined via DFT computations at the theory-level B3LYP/6-311 ++ G(d, p), these have been contrasted with the X-ray data already available. Hirshfeld surface analysis has made it possible for the visualization and quantification of relationships between molecules in the crystal composition. Quantum theory atoms in molecules, electron location function, decreased density gradient, and localized orbital locator research have all been used to explore non-covalent interactions in crystal structure. In order to pinpoint both the nucleophilic and electrophilic locations that support hydrogen bond formation, the molecule electrostatic potential was determined. The greatest and lowest energies of occupied and unfilled molecular orbitals, together with additional derived atomic characteristics, show the material to be extremely stable and hard. According to a molecular docking study, 4-OPEAN may exhibit inhibiting effects on the 6Y84 and 7EJY virus proteins from corona (COVID-19).
